I love to watch Corryn as she exercises her growing intellect. Is that fair to say? I mean it is not really a matter of learning anew but more of remembering.
Anyway, the other day when I was babysitting, I didn’t want to hang around the house. I convinced Corryn that she wanted to leave too. Outside, she saw the car and said “In the car?”
“No, “ I moaned. “Not in the car.”
Corryn gave me a look like she wanted to say, “Why not in the car?”
“I don’t have the keys.” I explained.
She stopped. “Keys?”, she asked as she turned back to the house as if she were to go get them.
I picked her up. “Oh no, we’re not going back in there.”
Sad will be the day when she learns how worthless I am when it comes to driving. This is a sensitive issue and I hope to address it in my trouble with siblings post.
